Safety Guidelines
6.Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place
calls when you are not moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your
trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times you
may be stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise
stationary. But if you need to dial while driving,
follow this simple tip— dial only a few numbers,
check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
7.Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting. Stressful or
emotional conversations and driving do not mix; they
are distracting and even dangerous when you are
behind the wheel of a car. Make people you are
talking with aware you are driving and if necessary,
suspend conversations which have the potential to
divert your attention from the road.
8.Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your
wireless phone is one of the greatest tools you can
own to protect yourself and your family in dangerous
situations — with your phone at your side, help is
only three numbers away. Dial 911 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic
accident, road hazard or medical emergency.
Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!
9.Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. Your wireless phone provides you a
perfect opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in your
community. If you see an auto accident, crime in
progress or other serious emergency where lives
are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.
10.Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-
emergency assistance number when necessary.
Certain situations you encounter while driving may
require attention, but are not urgent enough to
merit a call for emergency services. But you can
still use your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you
see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious
hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic
accident where no one appears injured or a
vehicle. you know to be stolen, call roadside
assistance or other special non-emergency
wireless number.
